 		 #150147 - USB/PS2 likely
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Manufacturers tend to be lazy

so from the beginning they used commonly used protocols, like PS2 and nowadays USB.

If you can trace the Vcc and the Gnd on the device (meassure on the connector on the MB) than you can perhaps experiment somewhat.
See what datastream comes out.

Succes!
